Two Clark sisters - where did they go?
« on: Tuesday 10 April 18 11:57 BST (UK) »
Mary Eliza also known as Minnie b 1856 in Wraysbury, reg Eton; and sister Ellen Louisa also known as Nellie b 1866 Wraysbury lived together with their father Richard Samuel Clark in the 1891 census. He died 1896 and in 1901 census the two sisters were living at 8 Grove Rd New Windsor in Berkshire. Ellen was a teacher and Mary housekeeper was Head. In 1911 Ellen, teacher was Head and Mary housekeeper and living at 78 Frances Rd Windsor.
What happened to them? Can someone please find a death for them or electoral records as I cannot find a reference that I am sure of. Places in England are confusing for me in NZ
Most grateful to solve a problem.
Thanks

I think you will find them both living on the south coast just before WW2  ;)
